IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING

If the information in this manual is not followed exactly, a ﬁre or explosion

may result causing property damage, personal injury, or death.

• Before beginning installation, please read and follow these important instructions

for the safety of your home and the people living in it.

• The instructions in this manual are intended for qualiﬁed installers and certiﬁed

service technicians. Installation and electrical wiring must be completed by

qualiﬁed professionals and in accordance with applicable codes and standards.

• DO NOT attempt to install this appliance yourself. Injury could result from

installing the unit due to lack of appropriate electrical and technical background.

• The installer should leave these instructions with the consumer who should retain

for local inspectors’ use and for future reference.

• Due to the size and weight of this range hood, two-person installation is highly

recommended.

• Use care when handling the range hood, chimney cover, bafﬂe ﬁlters, and any

parts or accessories, as sharp edges may lead to injury. Use of gloves during

installation is highly recommended.

• The manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage to property or to

persons caused by incorrect installation, improper use of the appliance, or failure

to heed the warnings listed.

• The manufacturer reserves the right to make changes to its products when

considered necessary and useful, without affecting the essential safety and

operating characteristics.

• This appliance is designed for general ventilating use only. DO NOT use to

exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

• The combustion air ﬂow needed for safe operation of fuel-burning equipment

may be affected by this unit’s operation. Follow heating equipment guidelines

and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection

Association (NFPA), American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air

Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and local code and government authorities.

General Safety

• Sufﬁcient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through

the duct to prevent back drafting.

• Before servicing or cleaning the unit, fully disconnect the range hood from power

to avoid risk of electric shock and injury.

• Ducted range hoods MUST ALWAYS be vented to the outdoors or in some

instances converted to recirculate the air. All ZLINE range hoods come with a

transition piece with a built-in damper. Some existing installations may already

have an external damper. Please consult an HVAC or installation professional for

advice to comply with local regulations.

• When cutting or drilling into a wall or ceiling, be careful not to damage electrical

wiring or other hidden utilities.

• All electrical wiring must be properly installed, insulated, and grounded.

• Electrical installation must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code

ANSI/NPA70-latest edition and/or local codes.

• Old duct work should be cleaned or replaced, if necessary, to avoid the

possibility of a grease ﬁre or other hazard. Check all joints on duct work to

ensure proper connection; all joints should be properly taped/secured.

• When the range hood ventilates air out of the room, the vented air must be

replaced; this is called makeup air. If a makeup air system is needed, but not

used, a hood may not function as expected due to negative air pressure.

• ZLINE does not currently provide makeup air units. Always consult applicable

building codes regarding minimum and maximum air ﬂow rates. Certain states

may require additional items such as makeup air for larger CFM range hoods

(typically over 400 CFM).

• Keep the motor, fans, bafﬂe channels, ﬁlters, tunnels, oil containers, and grease-

laden surfaces clean. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate inside or on

the surface of the range hood; clean surfaces frequently.

• Take care when cleaning the range hood in spray form: never direct the spray

onto the electrical wiring, motor, button panel, or light bulbs.

• After installation, use a stainless steel cleaning product or wipe to eliminate any

residues from protective ﬁlm after removal.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

General Safety

• When cleaning stainless steel, only use a stainless steel cleaner product with

a soft sponge, or use a cloth with a warm soap and water solution. Never use

abrasive powders or liquids.

• To reduce the risk of ﬁre and to disperse air properly, make sure to vent air

outside. DO NOT vent exhaust into spaces between walls, crawl spaces,

ceilings, attics, or garages.

• All ZLINE range hoods are ETL-listed, ensuring all parts were tested for safety

and meet industry standards and regulations.

• You must purchase appropriate ﬂexible ducting and any additional items to vent

the hood in accordance with government codes.

• Please verify with local and state regulations on the proper venting method for

your hood. Many agencies have CFM rating speciﬁcations for your hood.

• Always turn the range hood on when cooking at high heat or when cooking

ﬂaming foods. Use high settings on the cooking range only when necessary.

• Never leave range top surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers can

cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or

medium settings.

• Always use appropriate cookware and utensils. Always use cookware

appropriate for the size of the surface element on your range top.

• To reduce the risk of injury in the event of a range top grease ﬁre, smother ﬂames

with a close ﬁtting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. Never

pick up a ﬂaming pan — you may be severely burned.

• Keep ﬂammable or combustible material away from ﬂames. If ﬂames do not go

out immediately, evacuate and call the ﬁre department. DO NOT use water,

including wet dishcloths or towels — a violent steam explosion will result.

• Carefully inspect all items for damages upon delivery. Upon acceptance of

items, owner assumes responsibility for its safe arrival.

• Before installing your unit, test the range hood for proper functionality by

plugging it into the wall and testing the fan and lights. Do not install this range

hood if it has missing or broken parts. If the unit arrives damaged, contact ZLINE

Customer Service at 1-614-777-5004 for help.

30”-36”36” Height Varies 16”-max 31½”

NOTE: The recommended height to install your hood is 30˝ minimum and 36˝ maximum

above the range top or cook top. For outdoor range hood installation, the unit must be

installed at a minimum of 36˝ and a maximum of 42” above the grill. These distances

allow for maximum venting efﬁciency. The height of your chimney will vary depending on

model of hood, as well as the height of your kitchen ceiling.

Ducting

DUCTING

NOTES:

• Ducting is not provided with your ZLINE range hood. It’s recommended to use solid

ducting made of galvanized steel or another appropriate rigid metal ducting whenever

possible for the lowest noise and highest ﬂow.

• Use a maximum of 40’ of ductwork. Try to minimize the use of elbows.

• You must establish a minimum of 12” of vertical airﬂow from the top of the hood before

executing any 90° turn. No more than 3 elbows are allowed; each 90° turn you make

equates to 5’ lost when accounting for the maximum 40’.

• Do not use any reducers on ducting smaller than the appropriate diameter (6” or 8”).

• Any existing or additional dampers should be inspected for proper operation.

Mounting Directions

MOUNTING DIRECTIONS

1. Based on the width of your hood, measure to ﬁnd the center of the wall. Mark

a line and measure to the left and right to ﬁnd your two mounting points. Make

sure the mounting points are level and mark the with a pen. It is recommended to

install the hood into wood supports to hold the weight of the hood. Figure 1

2. Drill holes into each mounting point with a suitable sized bit. Tap 2 anchors (A)

into the holes, then fasten 2 mounting screws (C) and washers (D), making sure

to leave the screw heads out roughly 1/4” in order to mount the hood. Figure 2

3. Using at least two people, mount the main body of the hood onto the two screws

and slide into place. Figure 2

4. Mount the top chimney mounting bracket near the ceiling by drilling two holes,

tapping 2 anchors (B) into the wall and then securing with 2 screws (E). Make

sure the chimney bracket is centered and level above the hood. Figure 3

5. Install the transition piece on top of the range hood by securing it with screws (E)

provided. Some hoods require 4 screws, others require 6. Figure 4

6. Secure your ducting connection to the transition piece using foil-backed tape to hold

it into place top of the hood. Try and minimize the use of elbows; more elbows and

longer runs create higher static pressure.

7. The hood comes with a grounded 3-prong plug that must be plugged into a

dedicated 15-amp circuit. The cord is 36” long. Figure 5

Figure 4

Figure 5

NOTE: Run the electrical cord up the chimney,
